AltiKa: a Ka-band Altimetry Payload and System for Operational Altimetry during the GMES Period
This paper describes the Ka-band altimetry payload and system that has been studied for several years by CNES, ALCATEL SPACE and some science laboratories. Altimetry is one of the major elements of the ocean observing system to be made sustainable through the GEOSS (Global Earth Observation System of Systems) and GMES (Global Monitoring of the Environment and Security) programs. A short review ...
متن کاملErs-2 Altimetry in Operational Noaa Forecast Models
NOAA's Laboratory for Satellite Altimetry has been producing real-time altimetry products from ERS-1 and ERS-2 since 1995. Significant enhancements are made to ESA's fast-delivery data sets, most notably the addition of orbit information provided by the Delft University of Technology. In late 1998, several enhancements were made to the NOAA/Delft altimetry products: ESA's fast-delivery data now...
متن کاملPhotogrammetry and Laser Altimetry
Laser altimetry has, and is continuing to have a profound impact on photogrammetry. This paper discusses the interrelationship between the two fields, identifies problems, and suggests a common research agenda. Surface reconstruction is an important application in photogrammetry. DTMs, for example, are as much an end result as an intermediate step for orthophoto generation and for object recogn...
متن کاملTopex/Poseidon Satellite Altimetry
A recently developed multiresolution estimation framework offers the possibility of highly efficient statistical analysis, interpolation, and smoothing of extremely large data sets in a multiscale fashion. This framework enjoys a number of advantages not shared by other statistically-based methods. In particular, the algorithms resulting from this framework have complexity that scales only line...
متن کاملThe Benefits of the Ka-Band as Evidenced from the SARAL/AltiKa Altimetric Mission: Scientific Applications
The India–France SARAL/AltiKa mission is the first Ka-band altimetric mission dedicated primarily to oceanography. The mission objectives were firstly the observation of the oceanic mesoscales but also global and regional sea level monitoring, including the coastal zone, data assimilation, and operational oceanography. SARAL/AltiKa proved also to be a great opportunity for inland waters applica...
